Adjust the Standby Setting

You can adjust the portion of the battery devoted to the “standby period.” Standby is your battery reserve that is used to protect the data and applications stored in RAM.

During standby, the unit turns off so very little power is being consumed. This helps to preserve programs and data stored in the RAM.

You can select a lower standby period if you use the Pocket PC for extended periods of time. A lower standby period increases the usable battery operating time.

You can select a higher standby period if you leave your

Pocket PC off for extended periods of time without recharging it. A higher standby period decreases the usable battery time and allocates it for standby usage.

For more information on using the Standby Setting, tap Help from the Start menu.

To adjust the standby setting:

1.From the Start menu, tap Settings.

2.Tap System, then the Power icon.
